Some of the most critical issues facing our society are grounded in Earth sciences: natural hazards, climate change, energy, and natural resources, including water quality and availability.

Geology Major

Geology explores Earth's processes and materials over ‘deep’ time. The focus is on the physical planet and the structure, composition, evolution, and interactions of Earth’s geosphere, biosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere. Geology is an integrative and diverse science major that applies aspects of chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics, and natural history to solve Earth-science problems.
